Explore some recommendations from trusted critics (评论家). Eyes that Kiss in the Corners (Joanna Ho, illustrated by Dung Ho) This book is brilliantly written because it focuses both on how the characters’ eyes look and on how they see. Focusing on a young girl who takes pride in her “eyes that kiss in the corner and glow like warm tea”, Joanna Ho’s lyrical intergenerational story combines with Dung Ho’s warm and often magical imagery to bring us a celebration on how we see the world — and how we see ourselves. (For ages 4 to 8) My Brother Is Away (Sara Greenwood, illustrated by Luisa Uribe) It’s never easy to explain that a family member is kept in prison, and it can be especially hard for children. This touching book draws on the author’s own childhood to tell the story of a young girl whose brother is in prison. What does she say to her friends who have seen him on the news? And will he still love her? A gentle and hopeful story for kids about very adult situations and complex feelings. (For ages 5 to 8) Rez Dogs (Joseph Bruchac) When COVID-19 hits, Malian is visiting her grandparents. It is in Malian’s grandparents’ stories that she learns how the people of her native community have always taken care of one another. Written in poetry, this book shows us the pandemic (疫情) through a child’s eyes and helps remind us that responsibility and caring for one another is something we all can do. (For ages 8 to 12) Listen to the Language of the Trees (Tera Kelly, illustrated by Marie Hermansson) If you know about the “Wood Wide Web”, you know that trees communicate through the fungi (真菌) that connect their roots. Still, did you know how they support one another with extra food? How they can tell their offspring (后代) apart from other trees? How they can warn other trees when insects attack? Then, consider this outstanding book for kids on the topic. (For ages 4 to 8) 21. What do Eyes that Kiss in the Corners and My Brother Is Away have in common? A. They both reveal mixed feelings. B. They both focus on children’s responsibility. C. They are intended for children of same age. D. They both tell stories through a girl’s eyes. 22. Which book best suits children who are interested in science? A. Rez Dogs. B. Listen to the Language of the Trees. C. My Brother Is Away. D. Eyes that Kiss in the Corners. 23. Where is the text probably taken from? A. A magazine. B. A research paper. C. A film review. D. A travel journal. B Even at 80, Mei Jingtian continues to watch over the Great Wall. Living in a village near the Great Wall, Mei has a deep love for the wall. He still remembers he usually ran and played hide-and-seek with his friends on this impressive structure when he was a child. However, when he returned to the village after working outside for years, he was surprised by the damage to the ancient wall. “Some villagers even took bricks from it to build their houses,” Mei said. To help protect the wonder, Mei volunteered to walk along the wall each day to check its condition, encouraging other villagers to join him. “Of course, it might be dangerous to hike in the mountains by myself, so I always tap the grassy ground along the way with a wooden stick, scaring wild animals away,” Mei said. In 2006, as head of the village, Mei helped set up a local volunteer protection group. Realizing the importance of heritage protection, more and more villagers returned the bricks they had taken, and about 80 of them joined as volunteers. To ensure that the volunteers could carry out their duties effectively, Mei arranged for training programs on basic protection and safety measures. Together, they conducted daily check-ups to track the condition of the Great Wall and reported any damages. Encouraged by her father, Mei’s daughter, followed him and officially became a Great Wall protector in 2019. “When I was a child, my father always told me his stories and talked about the history of the Great Wall,” Mei’s daughter said. “It is also my responsibility to protect the cultural heritage.” The past ten years have seen Mei’s preservation efforts to the Great Wall. “It is my biggest wish to see heritage well-preserved and open to visits, encouraging more people to join us in protecting the Great Wall,” Mei says. 24. What did Mei often do when he was a child? A. He played games with his friends. B. He helped repair parts of the wall. C. He learned about the wall’s history. D. He took bricks from it to build houses. 25. What is the purpose of Mei taking a wooden stick? A. For marking his path. B. For warning wild animals. C. For checking the grassy ground. D.

He often collects litter left by tourists. D. He likes guiding visitors along the wall. C Diwali, also known as the “Festival of Lights,” is observed in Canada every October or November. People mark the occasion in many ways — schools, businesses, community groups, and cultural associations all join in the festivities. Some companies host special Diwali dinners, while communities organize various events like firework shows, dance performances, street light displays, and theatrical plays. Many women wear fine jewellery and silk outfits to celebrate Diwali. Some women and girls use Mehendi, a dye decoration which can last a limited time, on their palms, and then they will finally get colourful hand paintings. Many homes that celebrate Diwali have various types of sweets, salty and spiced food as well as Diwali herbs (香草). Various lights, candles and sparklers are lit inside and outside homes, especially in courtyards, on Diwali. Diwali is not a nationwide public holiday in Canada, but it is a prevalent festival celebrated in many towns and cities. There may be traffic jams and parking places may be full in areas where events are held to celebrate Diwali. Some businesses may close early on Diwali. Diwali is called the “Festival of Lights” and is celebrated to honour Rama, a hero who once fought and won a battle against the demons (恶魔). In the past, people lit their houses to celebrate his victory over demons (light over darkness). At the same time, every household did careful and complete cleaning at home in advance. It is believed that the goddess of happiness and good fortune, Lakshmi, travels around the Earth on this day and enters the house that is pure, clean, and bright. Diwali celebrations may vary in different communities but its spiritual meaning is generally “the awareness of the inner light”. As the word “Deepavali” means “a row or cluster of light”, the festival symbolises the victory of righteousness and the lifting of spiritual darkness. 28. What can we learn about Diwali from the first two paragraphs? A. It is celebrated on a fixed day. B. It centres on various local foods. C. People stay up late to prepare for it. D. People from all walks of life enjoy celebrating it. 29. What does the underlined word “prevalent” in Paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Popular. B. Free. C. Serious. D. Funny. 30. According to Paragraph 3, why did people make their houses bright and clean on Diwali? A. To expect joy and good luck. B. To pray for a good journey. C. To create a romantic atmosphere. D. To welcome their friends to visit. 31. What is the author’s purpose in writing this passage? A. To stress the importance of a public holiday. B. To briefly introduce a traditional festival in Canada. C. To tell an interesting story about a Canadian festival. D. To show different holiday celebrations in Western cultures. D According to the Gallup World Poll for the World Happiness Report 2024, America has fallen out of the top 20 happiest countries for the first time. This is not surprising considering the rising costs of living and a number of daily disturbing news reports. But the key factor is that social media has replaced in-person interaction and often creates a feeling of missing out. One way that companies can help deal with these challenges is holding community-building activities and providing employees (雇员) with social purpose. A recent study by Ares Management Corporation looked into the effects of workplace volunteer programs, conducting interviews with more than 5,100 employees across five countries. The goal of this study was to understand how acts of selflessness change the givers. The results stress the fact that volunteering enriches the lives of both receivers and volunteers. According to the study, employees who participate in workplace volunteer programs are more likely than nonparticipants to be content with their jobs and chances for professional growth. Many companies make efforts to offer more time away from the office to make it easy for their employees to volunteer. One of the best examples is IBM, a leader in this space, recognizing the benefits of investing in community service for its employees. The company sponsors its employees on multi-week service projects in developing countries. Enabling volunteers to take much time away from office to travel abroad to make an effect creates a life-changing experience for both the workers and the communities they are supporting. Especially in times like today, when we face so many worries and stresses that are out of our control, volunteering offers mental improvement by bringing people together and giving them a way to make a positive difference. And there are no more meaningful ways to improve employee wellness and satisfaction. 32. What’s the major cause in the reduction of happiness in America? A Increasing living expenses. B. Various social media apps. C. Less face-to-face communication. D. Countless troublesome information. 33. According to paragraph 2, the study mainly focuses on ________. A. how workplace volunteer programs affect employees B. what workplace volunteer programs bring to the community C. whether workplace volunteer programs should be carried out D. why workplace volunteer programs are popular across countries 34. Why does the author mention the example of IBM? A. To praise the employees in IBM. B. To advocate volunteering abroad. C. To comment on a new voluntary model. D. To show companies’ support for volunteering. 35. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. Volunteering: Bring People Together B. Volunteering: Enrich the Community C. Volunteering: Offer Mental Improvement D. Volunteering: Increase Employee Happiness 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Have you noticed how happy songs can give you energy, while peaceful tunes (曲调) can help you relax? ____36____ What is “getting lost in music”?

Explore some recommendations from trusted critics (评论家). Eyes that Kiss in the Corners (Joanna Ho, illustrated by Dung Ho) This book is brilliantly written because it focuses both on how the characters’ eyes look and on how they see. Focusing on a young girl who takes pride in her “eyes that kiss in the corner and glow like warm tea”, Joanna Ho’s lyrical intergenerational story combines with Dung Ho’s warm and often magical imagery to bring us a celebration on how we see the world — and how we see ourselves. (For ages 4 to 8) My Brother Is Away (Sara Greenwood, illustrated by Luisa Uribe) It’s never easy to explain that a family member is kept in prison, and it can be especially hard for children. This touching book draws on the author’s own childhood to tell the story of a young girl whose brother is in prison. What does she say to her friends who have seen him on the news? And will he still love her? A gentle and hopeful story for kids about very adult situations and complex feelings. (For ages 5 to 8) Rez Dogs (Joseph Bruchac) When COVID-19 hits, Malian is visiting her grandparents. It is in Malian’s grandparents’ stories that she learns how the people of her native community have always taken care of one another. Written in poetry, this book shows us the pandemic (疫情) through a child’s eyes and helps remind us that responsibility and caring for one another is something we all can do. (For ages 8 to 12) Listen to the Language of the Trees (Tera Kelly, illustrated by Marie Hermansson) If you know about the “Wood Wide Web”, you know that trees communicate through the fungi (真菌) that connect their roots. Still, did you know how they support one another with extra food? How they can tell their offspring (后代) apart from other trees? How they can warn other trees when insects attack? Then, consider this outstanding book for kids on the topic. (For ages 4 to 8) 21. What do Eyes that Kiss in the Corners and My Brother Is Away have in common? A. They both reveal mixed feelings. B. They both focus on children’s responsibility. C. They are intended for children of same age. D. They both tell stories through a girl’s eyes. 22. Which book best suits children who are interested in science? A. Rez Dogs. B. Listen to the Language of the Trees. C. My Brother Is Away. D. Eyes that Kiss in the Corners. 23. Where is the text probably taken from? A. A magazine. B. A research paper. C. A film review. D. A travel journal. 【答案】21. D 22. B 23. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了四本由评论家推荐的适合不同年龄段儿童的书籍。 【21题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Focusing on a young girl who takes pride in her “eyes that kiss in the corner and glow like warm tea”, Joanna Ho’s lyrical intergenerational story combines with Dung Ho’s warm and often magical imagery to bring us a celebration on how we see the world — and how we see ourselves. (For ages 4 to 8) (故事围绕一个为自己“眼角含笑、如暖茶般温润闪耀的眼睛”深感自豪的小女孩展开。乔安娜・霍创作的这个充满诗意的跨代际故事，与董・霍笔下温暖且常带奇幻色彩的插画相得益彰，共同为读者呈现了一场关于“我们如何看待世界，以及如何看待自我”的生命礼赞。(适合4至8岁))”可知，《眼角含笑的眼睛》这本书聚焦于一个年轻女孩，她为自己“眼角含笑、如暖茶般温润闪耀的眼睛”而自豪；根据第三段中“This touching book draws on the author’s own childhood to tell the story of a young girl whose brother is in prison. (这本感人的书取材于作者自己的童年，讲述了一个小女孩的故事，她的哥哥在监狱里)”可知，《我的哥哥不在家》这本书借鉴了作者自己的童年，讲述了一个年轻女孩的故事。由此可知，这两本书的共同点是它们都是通过一个女孩的视角来讲故事的。故选D。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“If you know about the ‘Wood Wide Web’, you know that trees communicate through the fungi that connect their roots. Still, did you know how they support one another with extra food? How they can tell their offspring apart from other trees? How they can warn other trees when insects attack? Then, consider this outstanding book for kids on the topic. (如果你听说过“树木网络”(Wood Wide Web)，就会知道树木通过连接根系的真菌进行交流。不过，你知道它们如何用额外的养分相互扶持吗？如何分辨自己的后代与其他树木？当昆虫来袭时，又如何向其他树木发出警告？不妨让孩子读读这本关于该主题的出色书籍)”可知，《倾听树木的语言》这本书介绍了关于树木交流的科学知识，适合对科学感兴趣的孩子。故选B。 【23题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章首段“Look for a perfect children’s book?

Living in a village near the Great Wall, Mei has a deep love for the wall. He still remembers he usually ran and played hide-and-seek with his friends on this impressive structure when he was a child. However, when he returned to the village after working outside for years, he was surprised by the damage to the ancient wall. “Some villagers even took bricks from it to build their houses,” Mei said. To help protect the wonder, Mei volunteered to walk along the wall each day to check its condition, encouraging other villagers to join him. “Of course, it might be dangerous to hike in the mountains by myself, so I always tap the grassy ground along the way with a wooden stick, scaring wild animals away,” Mei said. In 2006, as head of the village, Mei helped set up a local volunteer protection group. Realizing the importance of heritage protection, more and more villagers returned the bricks they had taken, and about 80 of them joined as volunteers. To ensure that the volunteers could carry out their duties effectively, Mei arranged for training programs on basic protection and safety measures. Together, they conducted daily check-ups to track the condition of the Great Wall and reported any damages. Encouraged by her father, Mei’s daughter, followed him and officially became a Great Wall protector in 2019. “When I was a child, my father always told me his stories and talked about the history of the Great Wall,” Mei’s daughter said. “It is also my responsibility to protect the cultural heritage.” The past ten years have seen Mei’s preservation efforts to the Great Wall. “It is my biggest wish to see heritage well-preserved and open to visits, encouraging more people to join us in protecting the Great Wall,” Mei says. 24.

People mark the occasion in many ways — schools, businesses, community groups, and cultural associations all join in the festivities. Some companies host special Diwali dinners, while communities organize various events like firework shows, dance performances, street light displays, and theatrical plays. Many women wear fine jewellery and silk outfits to celebrate Diwali. Some women and girls use Mehendi, a dye decoration which can last a limited time, on their palms, and then they will finally get colourful hand paintings. Many homes that celebrate Diwali have various types of sweets, salty and spiced food as well as Diwali herbs (香草). Various lights, candles and sparklers are lit inside and outside homes, especially in courtyards, on Diwali. Diwali is not a nationwide public holiday in Canada, but it is a prevalent festival celebrated in many towns and cities. There may be traffic jams and parking places may be full in areas where events are held to celebrate Diwali. Some businesses may close early on Diwali. Diwali is called the “Festival of Lights” and is celebrated to honour Rama, a hero who once fought and won a battle against the demons (恶魔). In the past, people lit their houses to celebrate his victory over demons (light over darkness). At the same time, every household did careful and complete cleaning at home in advance. It is believed that the goddess of happiness and good fortune, Lakshmi, travels around the Earth on this day and enters the house that is pure, clean, and bright. Diwali celebrations may vary in different communities but its spiritual meaning is generally “the awareness of the inner light”. As the word “Deepavali” means “a row or cluster of light”, the festival symbolises the victory of righteousness and the lifting of spiritual darkness. 28. What can we learn about Diwali from the first two paragraphs? A. It is celebrated on a fixed day. B. It centres on various local foods. C. People stay up late to prepare for it. D. People from all walks of life enjoy celebrating it. 29. What does the underlined word “prevalent” in Paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Popular. B. Free. C. Serious. D. Funny. 30.

(人们以多种方式庆祝这个节日——学校、企业、社区团体和文化协会都参与到庆祝活动中来)”可知，各行各业的人都喜欢庆祝排灯节。故选D。 【29题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段中“Diwali is not a nationwide public holiday in Canada, but it is a prevalent festival celebrated in many towns and cities. There may be traffic jams and parking places may be full in areas where events are held to celebrate Diwali. Some businesses may close early on Diwali. (排灯节在加拿大不是全国性的公共假日，但它是一个在许多城镇都庆祝的prevalent节日。在庆祝排灯节的地区可能会出现交通堵塞，停车位可能会爆满。一些企业可能会在排灯节提前关门)”可知，排灯节受到很多关注和庆祝，由此推测prevalent意为“受欢迎的，流行的”，与Popular意思相近。故选A。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“It is believed that the goddess of happiness and good fortune, Lakshmi, travels around the Earth on this day and enters the house that is pure, clean, and bright. (人们相信，幸福和好运女神拉克希米在这一天环游地球，并进入纯净、干净和明亮的房子)”可知，人们把房子弄得明亮干净是为了期待快乐和好运。故选A。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是由文章第一段“Diwali, also known as the “Festival of Lights,” is observed in Canada every October or November.

Some companies host special Diwali dinners, while communities organize various events like firework shows, dance performances, street light displays, and theatrical plays. (排灯节，又称“光明节”，每年十月或十一月在加拿大庆祝。人们以多种方式庆祝这个节日——学校、企业、社区团体和文化协会都参与到庆祝活动中来。一些公司会举办特别的排灯节晚宴，而社区则会组织各种活动，如烟花表演、舞蹈演出、街灯展示和戏剧表演)”可知，文章主要从排灯节的庆祝时间、方式，背后的意义等方面对加拿大的排灯节进行了介绍。故选B。 D According to the Gallup World Poll for the World Happiness Report 2024, America has fallen out of the top 20 happiest countries for the first time. This is not surprising considering the rising costs of living and a number of daily disturbing news reports. But the key factor is that social media has replaced in-person interaction and often creates a feeling of missing out. One way that companies can help deal with these challenges is holding community-building activities and providing employees (雇员) with social purpose. A recent study by Ares Management Corporation looked into the effects of workplace volunteer programs, conducting interviews with more than 5,100 employees across five countries. The goal of this study was to understand how acts of selflessness change the givers. The results stress the fact that volunteering enriches the lives of both receivers and volunteers. According to the study, employees who participate in workplace volunteer programs are more likely than nonparticipants to be content with their jobs and chances for professional growth. Many companies make efforts to offer more time away from the office to make it easy for their employees to volunteer. One of the best examples is IBM, a leader in this space, recognizing the benefits of investing in community service for its employees. The company sponsors its employees on multi-week service projects in developing countries. Enabling volunteers to take much time away from office to travel abroad to make an effect creates a life-changing experience for both the workers and the communities they are supporting. Especially in times like today, when we face so many worries and stresses that are out of our control, volunteering offers mental improvement by bringing people together and giving them a way to make a positive difference. And there are no more meaningful ways to improve employee wellness and satisfaction. 32. What’s the major cause in the reduction of happiness in America? A. Increasing living expenses. B. Various social media apps. C. Less face-to-face communication. D. Countless troublesome information. 33. According to paragraph 2, the study mainly focuses on ________. A. how workplace volunteer programs affect employees B. what workplace volunteer programs bring to the community C. whether workplace volunteer programs should be carried out D. why workplace volunteer programs are popular across countries 34. Why does the author mention the example of IBM? A. To praise the employees in IBM. B. To advocate volunteering abroad. C. To comment on a new voluntary model. D. To show companies’ support for volunteering. 35. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. Volunteering: Bring People Together B. Volunteering: Enrich the Community C. Volunteering: Offer Mental Improvement D. Volunteering: Increase Employee Happiness 【答案】32. C 33. A 34. D 35. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了美国幸福感下降原因以及志愿服务对提升幸福感作用的文章。文章指出美国幸福感下降的主要原因是社交媒体取代了面对面交流，公司通过举办社区建设活动和让员工参与志愿服务能改善这种情况，且志愿服务对员工和社区都有益处。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“According to the Gallup World Poll for the World Happiness Report 2024, America has fallen out of the top 20 happiest countries for the first time. This is not surprising considering the rising costs of living and a number of daily disturbing news reports. But the key factor is that social media has replaced in-person interaction and often creates a feeling of missing out.( 根据盖洛普对《2024年世界幸福报告》的世界民意调查，美国首次跌出了最幸福国家的前20名。考虑到不断上涨的生活成本和每天大量令人不安的新闻报道，这并不奇怪。但关键因素是，社交媒体已经取代了面对面的互动，往往会让人产生一种落伍的感觉)”可知，美国幸福感下降的关键因素是社交媒体取代了面对面的交流，这常常让人产生一种错过的感觉。故选C项。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“A recent study by Ares Management Corporation looked into the effects of workplace volunteer programs, conducting interviews with more than 5,100 employees across five countries. The goal of this study was to understand how acts of selflessness change the givers.( 阿瑞斯管理公司（Ares Management Corporation）最近对五个国家的5100多名员工进行了采访，调查了工作场所志愿者项目的影响。这项研究的目的是了解无私的行为是如何改变施予者的)”可知，这项研究主要是调查职场志愿者项目对员工（给予者）的影响，了解无私的行为是如何改变给予者的。故选A项。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“Many companies make efforts to offer more time away from the office to make it easy for their employees to volunteer.

She was smart and nice while the boss Elsie and other workers there were friendly. As a result, Jenny made friends with them. After Jenny graduated, she gave up her part-time job, said goodbye to her friends, and went to a city far away to go to college, not knowing these friends would do her a big favor in the future. Months later after Jenny was in college, the Christmas holiday approached. She applied herself to the final exams. Jenny’s eyes were aching from lack of sleep. She tried to rub(擦) the tiredness from her eyes, but failed. So she stood and stretched and looked through the window to watch the first snow of the season. As she stared out of the window of her dorm, memories of once happily staying with her family members for the holiday hit her mind. Feeling sad, Jenny sat back down at her desk and tried to focus on her studies. In just seven more days, the final exams would be over and all the students in the freshman college dorm would be going home except her. She would be moving temporarily to another dorm for the Christmas break. Instead of enjoying homemade pies, cookies and roast turkey together with her family, Jenny would be eating alone in the school dining hall. It was not a prospect she looked forward to. Jenny had no choice. She was a student from Pennsylvania attending college in Utah and her family of ten couldn’t afford to pay for her ticket home. She was able to attend college because of the several scholarships she had got. Unable to focus her mind, Jenny stared back at the white snow dancing in the air. This would be her first Christmas away from home. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右; 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Jenny was so sad that tears began welling up in her eyes. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Before long, Elsie and her workers bought Jenny a ticket home. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Jenny was so sad that tears began welling up in her eyes. She dried the tears and tried to block out the Christmas music that filled the entire hallway, not recalling her previous happy holiday. Suddenly, the phone rang, breaking up her moment of self-pity. She reached over and picked it up. “Hello?” “Hi, Jenny. This is Elsie.” Elsie greeted Jenny and asked when she would come back home on the phone. After hanging up, Elsie felt heart-broken. She immediately gathered her workers and told the bad news. Before long, Elsie and her workers bought Jenny a ticket home. When knowing it Jenny was so amazed and shouted, “I’m going home! I’m going home!” She jumped up and down for joy. She began happily preparing for the final exams. On Christmas morning, she was awoken early by laughter. The smell of the holiday food and being able to stay with her family filled her with gratitude and love. The kindness of some special friends helped her, a lonely freshman, to have the best Christmas ever. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了圣诞节临近，Jenny因家境贫困买不起车票，不能和家人一起过节。她情绪低落，无法集中精力复习功课。Jenny做兼职的老板Elsie得知此事后帮助Jenny买了回家的票。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“珍妮非常伤心，眼泪开始在她的眼睛里打转。”可知，第一段可描写Jenny因不能回家而感到悲伤以及Elsie得知了Jenny没钱买票回家的事。 ②由第二段首句内容“不久，Elsie和她的工人们给Jenny买了一张回家的车票。”可知，第二段可描写Jenny在得知她们给自己买了回家的票后很高兴，并对此很感激。 2.续写线索：伤心——回忆以前美好的节日——Elsie得知Jenny没有钱买票回家——老板和工人给她买了一张票——高兴——感悟 3.词汇激活行为类 ①回想：recall/think back ②回家：come back home/return home ③帮助某人：help sb./do sb. a favor 情绪类 ①惊讶的：amazed/surprised ②高兴：joy/happiness 【点睛】[高分句型1] She dried the tears and tried to block out the Christmas music that filled the entire hallway, not recalling her previous happy holiday. （由that引导的定语从句） [高分句型2]Elsie greeted Jenny and asked when she would come back home on the phone. （由when引导的宾语从句） [高分句型3]When knowing it Jenny was so amazed and shouted, “I’m going home!
